We make records, we play shows. And we love it. It's a great job to have. And we knew that we'd have to work hard at it and that's what we do. We work hard - and the bonus is it doesn't really feel like work at all, to be out there playing music. It really is a dream to do this. It can be a drag travelling all over the place, it can be tiring but when you're out there on stage, well that's the part that counts. That's when we really try to make it count." The click, do it.

It didn't offer much "news" but it didn't rehash the same 2-3 introductory questions that they seem to get. I noticed that Dan said wee instead of little a few times. It's great that he can answer with this and without a doubt it's true; they really haven't put out a bad cover song yet: Does it ever not work out? Ever try a song and it's not how you imagined it, not as good out loud as what you thought your interpretation might be? "No, that's never happened" - and there's a small chuckle. "I can honestly say I don't recall that happening. We play a lot and we pick songs we like - so we make sure we do a good job of them." Make sure your sneaker laces, they get tied. @unluckylaika Posted 1 year ago #

So I think there have definitely been times when they tried to cover a song and decided that it wasn't working as well as they'd hoped. Which is probably why he chuckled when he gave his answer. I think he was being a little sarcastic/funny. Then following that joke with an honest statement that when they do cover a song (and release it to the public) they work very hard on it. At least that's how it seemed to me when I read it. "When the power of Love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." -Jimi Hendrix Posted 1 year ago #

Unless his parents said it a lot or something. true that. the only dude in akron i have ever known to say wee was this kid who moved in from out of state. did i mention he got beat up everyday.

"They're a great band - well worth checking out. And it's funny, we've kept up with them a little bit but we haven't seen them play in a while and of course back in the day we opened for them. So it's going to be interesting, all these years later, them opening for us. It was years ago back in some wee bar in a college town. Meg White was in the audience; it was one of those mythical gigs - a lot of people that were clearly never there claim now to have been there." Posted 1 year ago #
